eCopy Connector for Microsoft
SharePoint, Server Edition

Seamlessly integrate  paper-based information into Microsoft SharePoint

Microsoft SharePoint makes it easy for people to share information and manage documents, yet critical information too often remains trapped on paper, where it cannot be accessed by SharePoint users. Paper documents — from vendor invoices and contracts to business letters and handwritten notes — can stand in the way of true collaboration and optimal document management efficiency. With the eCopy Connector for Microsoft SharePoint, Server Edition, users can scan hardcopy documents into SharePoint directly from any eCopy ShareScan®-enabled multifunction printer (MFP) or scanner as secure, searchable, and editable PDFs.

Dynamic, real-time connectivity between SharePoint and the MFP gives users access to the same SharePoint destinations — sites, libraries, folders, and lists — available from their desktops via a simple, straightforward interface at the MFP.  Scanning Favorites and support for powerful SharePoint features like My Sites, Business Data Catalogs (BDC), and Lookups ensure that users can find and access the destinations they need quickly and easily, so they can put paper-based information where it can be accessed by those who need it most. Users spend less time searching for information more time focusing on real work.

An intuitive push-button interface takes the guesswork out of scanning so the job is done right the first time, every time. eCopy’s OminiPage® OCR (Optical Recognition Engine) delivers unparalleled recognition accuracy, turning static images into searchable documents so information is even more accessible. Scanning Favorites and MySites support provide a personalized scanning experience at the MFP; users can create lists of frequently accessed SharePoint destinations that can be accessed with the push of a button, eliminating the need to navigate through the SharePoint structure. Through BDC and Lookups, the eCopy Connector empowers user to incorporate paper documents into complex workflows that leverage information from other line-of-business systems. Auto-population of fields and type-ahead intelligence save time, while mandatory field enforcement ensures proper indexing of scanned documents.
